Getting Started

VSFlexData is not just flexible and powerful, but is also a simple no-brainer to use! We recommend that to get started you go through the supplied demonstration projects so that you could enjoy all the benifits of VSFlexData.  For a description of various properties and methods, please refer to help on properties and methods.

Creating New Projects
To create your own projects using VSFlexData, follow these simple steps:

  1. Open Visual Basic
  2. Click on File menu and select New Project
  3. Select your desired project type (select Standard EXE for this example)
  4. Click on Project menu and select References
  5. Select and check VocalSoft FlexData ActiveX, then click on OK
  6. Double click on Form1 to go to Form_Load event
  7. Type:

    Dim vsfX as VSFlexData
    Set vsfX as New VSFlexData


  8. That's it! You have written the code to instantiate a VSFlexData object. Now you can take advantage of various properties and methods to create different kinds of data structures that best suit your purpose.

NOTE
If you have a registered version of VSFlexData, make sure to issue the following command anywhere in your application before you instantiate the first VSFlexData object:

VSFlexRegister your_license_key

your_license_key: a license key provided to the registered users.

This will ensure that you and the users of your application don't see the "evaluation version" screen.
